From sweatshirt dressing - she introduced it long before Jennifer Beals leaped through Flashdance in the cutoff top - to selling her clothes online, which she started doing way back in 1996, Norma Kamali has always stayed ahead of the curve. No surprise, then, that the designer, 66, showed her spring collection in a 3-D film inspired by Werner Herzog’s recent documentary Cave of Forgotten Dreams. “All I could concentrate on were the clothes - they just popped off the screen,” she recalls. With the launch of a 3-D-enabled shopping site, fans can check out her pieces while wearing chic 3-D glasses ($250) - and the lenses can be updated with regular ones. Here, a few other things she fancies...

I just heard of Etta James passing. I am so sad but so fortunate to have known her as a friend. Luckily we are all blessed to have her music to go on forever. Hopefully American blues sung in her unique style will never be forgotten.

I used to model in the 80s and these three coats were from my private collection: the Blue Sweatcoat, the Red Sleeping Bag Coat, and the faux Leopard. I still have the red and leopard coats.

The swimsuit was also Norma Kamali!

I am very excited to share my dream come true to present a collection of timeless styles under $100 available on the internet. The styles I have chosen are not watered down versions of the OMO collection, but a collection of styles that everyone needs to have in their wardrobe. Everyone needs timeless jersey dress styles that are a go to for family functions to school event for the kids, from work to dinner dates. Classic suiting that is not super styled but so well fitting and simply elegant that the individual components will work back to the most fashion forward styles or jeans and a tee shirt. Most of all it is a line I wear and my customers can enjoy. All the women who look at fashion skeptically, especially when a budget is most important, can have fun with this collection.
